Frankly, I'm ashamed of our country and the direction it has taken. Like Thomas Jefferson said, "I tremble for my country when I consider God is just." (paraphrased)

I've been reading this ever since you posted it yesterday. What a gentle, yet firm reminder of how important the role is a woman plays in the home. It has motivated me to tackle some long standing projects.
